Stevens

I went to visit Timorous Beast, who is lording it up teaching on a residential course set in a 16th Century country house with flowery carpets. He gets as much free wine as he wants with dinner, and port is passed to the left. 


This is not the house in question, but it's similar. This one is Dyrham Park and now that he's a mincing great toff, Timorous Beast made me pay £10.50 to visit it. 


It was rather nice and had the added virtue of being home to Mr Stevens the butler in film adaptation of The Remains of the Day.
